TaskHub: Your ultimate solution for task management
Corporate learning is very practice-oriented. Ideally, every completed learning assignment should be coupled with one or more practice sessions. And even further, these sessions would better be coupled with actual work tasks, so no piece of knowledge will be dissipated in vain.

The space to connect work and learning
TaskHub is an element of task management software that unites all tasks that each employee has. It frees managers from the manual work of arranging tasks and coupling them with education activities. Along with that, employees can interact with their assigned tasks and submit feedback. It reduces friction and ensures the best possible usage experience.
Here, managers can access the employees list easily, seeing all relevant information about their assigned tasks, responsibilities, and courses. It’s easy to change anything just in time, remind them about what they need to do, reward them, or simply track their pace. Employees can access their tasks, complete them, and submit their own materials and feedback when necessary, ensuring efficient communication with managers.

Quality assurance
It includes photo/video reports that employees can create and upload easily, as well as requests to managers based on their workflows. TaskHub has a handy employee-side interface where they can not only see the task description but also report its completion and submit all additional materials. If they encounter any trouble, inconvenience, or inefficient work approaches, they can report them immediately, so managers can take action to improve the situation. Due to TaskHub’s offline editing features, everything they submit saves instantly as a draft, so they can do this regardless of whether they have immediate Internet access. Their inputs will remain and be sent once the connection is restored. Being specialists in their fields, employees usually know best what can be improved. That’s why such a feedback feature is so popular among our LMS users.
Sales team management
The TaskHub toolset is well-suited to guide, educate, and audit sales teams and sales points, such as shops or restaurants. First, its task management tools enable sales managers to create sales plans, such as how many items should be sold, and then track their completion. In case there are problems, salespeople can write and submit feedback, so any inconveniences will be caught and resolved as soon as possible. Then, sales training that improves their productivity can be conducted, without detaching them from the work. For example, they can complete course tasks while interacting with actual customers. Managers can assess and evaluate their productivity and provide feedback on how they can improve it.
HR management
The TaskHub instruments for interactive two-sided communication enable HR managers to work with the company’s human capital daily. Many of the popular TaskHub usages can be attributed to this category.
For example, managers can survey staff quickly to measure their satisfaction and performance. Employees can create applications, requests, and complaints regarding their work conditions using the feedback form, so all these issues can quickly be handled. Lastly, the form can be used to manage vacations and salary payments. In this way, every operational activity can be connected using TaskHub.
Checklists: Onboarding, work routines, learning management
With a checklist option, managers can create branched lists with many elements, sub-elements, and sections, seeing which part of the onboarding tasks is complete and which is waiting to be completed. It can be used during the new employee onboarding, checking which onboarding elements they’ve already completed. Also, such checklists are good for monitoring education completion, and as you’ve seen, many CleverLMS customers use TaskHub for this.
Surveys, audits, and interactive education
Managers can create surveys easily, where employees are required to answer various questions and submit the form, so their expertise and subject understanding can be evaluated. They can also introduce various metrics based on these surveys to see how well employees master different soft and hard skills. Such metrics can include how well an employee can code, communicate, analyze the market, and evaluate the customers.
So, as you see, this task management system enables you to assess staff performance at every given moment. Based on the scores they take, managers see in which fields they perform well and where they still need guidance and development.
Taken together, you have a space where all the company’s activities dedicated to work planning and development can be created, accessed, and tracked.
